Tuesday 19 February 2008 14:29 BST

When actor Sean Bean called off plans for his fourth wedding last month just 24 hours before the ceremony, many wondered if the actor's turbulent love life would ever find a happy ending.

But it was finally all smiles as the 48-year-old star finally married his actress girlfriend 29-year-old Georgina Sutcliffe yesterday in a low key ceremony at Marylebone Register Office.

Friends and family had been left wondering if the ceremony would go ahead the second time around but the event thankfully passed without a repeat of incidents in January.

Just married: Actor Sean Bean has finally wed his fourth wife, actress Georgina Sutcliffe, following the cancellation of their ceremony last month. The wedding took place at Marylebone registry office today

The couple had cited personal reasons for the dramatic call off in which they made a series of frantic phone calls to family.

Events yesterday could not have been more in contrast. Asked how he was feeling the Sharpe star simply replied: "Fantastic."

The couple tied the knot in an half-hour ceremony attended by just 15 people including Bean's three young daughters Lorna 20, Molly 17 and Evie, nine, along with the bride and groom's parents.

Twenty-nine year old Georgina, who has had a number of minor roles in TV dramas, was dressed conservatively in a peach blouse and black pencil skirt while the groom arrived in a two piece pinstripe suit.

Husband and wife then left in a black cab. They were expected to spend the night at Brown's Hotel in Mayfair in the 3,000 a night honeymoon suite.

Their two-year relationship so far has been at best a turbulent one.

In 2006 the pair were seen emerging from the Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles covered in scratches and bruises after a furious row.

Just last summer Miss Sutcliffe was said to be livid with the star who had been seen openly flirting with female guests at a Cartier polo event.

But friends had been hopeful that the pair had managed to patch things up when they announced their wedding last month.

Cake and champagne had already been delivered to a Mayfair hotel for the ceremony when friends were told just 24 hours beforehand that the whole event was off with the couple citing personal reasons.

Bean's marriage to his first wife Debra, a hairdresser, came when he was just 21. He had two daughters Lorna and Molly with second wife TV actress Melanie Hill.

He married again, this time another actress Abigail Cruttenden with whom he starred alongside in ITV's Sharpe. Together they had daughter Evie.
